Sound familiar?...
Change is creating overwhelm and uncertainty
Our culture thrived on being together in person, but now it's hard to build connection
The ambiguity of the future is causing paralysis instead of action
Our business was transforming even before COVID, now our goals are more daunting
We need to find new ways to inspire and motivate our people
Jeremiah can help you tackle these challenges!
Go with real-world experience for deep impact and inspiration
Credibility counts. An audience will only allow themselves to be truly impacted by a speaker's message when that speaker has walked the talk. Jeremiah has been in the trenches, delivers amazing storytelling with authenticity, and genuinely cares about your people and your goals.

THREE KEYNOTE THEMES
When you need to inspire commitment and motivate action
Jeremiah takes audiences on an incredible one-of-a-kind journey of personal transformation and team unity. He challenges common notions of what it means to lead and to be led in the pursuit of excellence. He shows how to adapt to forces outside of one’s control and stay the course when the pressure is on, all while encouraging a healthy dose of self-compassion and humility.
Using vivid real-life Olympic setbacks, failures, and ultimate success, Jeremiah illuminates the true markers for success in any competitive setting.
When you need courageous leadership through adversity
When Jeremiah traveled across the country to learn how to row and take his moonshot at Olympic glory, the Canadians were the defending Olympic rowing champions. By the time he earned an opportunity to compete, the team had fallen to ranking seventh in the world.
What do Olympic coaches do differently? And how can we apply these lessons to the workplace? With the unique perspective of an outsider who joined the team at its lowest point in decades, Jeremiah takes audiences through the dramatic turnaround that saw the team climb back onto the podium.
When helping them adapt to disruption and change
We are all tasked with embracing change, or risk being left behind by disruption and market forces outside of our control. Constant learning and reinvention are the new normal.
From the Olympic laboratory to the workplace, Jeremiah uses masterful storytelling to carefully deconstruct how to perform and execute in the face of overwhelming challenges.
